MISS AMERICA COMICS #1 70TH ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL
A brand new adventure of one of comics’ original super-heroines! Plus an extra-special classic reprint of one of her original 1940’s adventures.
Jen van Meter (Black Lightning) and Andy MacDonald (PUNISHER: WAR JOURNAL) take you back to a time when the fate of the United States rested not only in thousands of men fighting for freedom overseas, but also in the hands of the women back home building the equipment that would keep the country running and winning!
So get ready Axis Annie, Vichy Vixen, and...Madame Mauzer! Her name might be Miss America...but she sure ain’t gonna miss a chance to sock evil in the face!
(This solicit brought to you by a very tipsy editor!)

AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #596 & #597

AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #598
That cover pretty much tells you what you need to know. Is there an evil obstetrician in the house?!?
For the fourteen-year-old.
DARK AVENGERS #6
Big, bold choices! That's what Norman Osborn's H.A.M.M.E.R. and Avengers have been all about! And with every bold choice comes more and more risk! And with risk comes pressure! And with pressure...come the voices. How long can Norman Osborn hold it together? And what is he willing to do to make it look like everything is just fine!
NEW AVENGERS #54
A Sorcerer Supreme is chosen! Be witness to a very important chapter in Avengers history and the lore of Marvel magic! Plus, the Avengers finally have a big showdown with the Hood and not everyone walks away from it unharmed!
MIGHTY AVENGERS #26
The Avengers/Fantastic Four slobberknocker continues! This one's got it all true believers: from MR. FANTASTIC and HANK PYM'S battle of the brains to HERCULES and THE THING'S battle o' the brawn! When it's over, expect BIG changes for Earth's Mightiest Heroes-- including the team's all-new headquarters and a very disturbing DARK REIGN alliance.
I don't know yet if I'm going to keep wanting "Dark Avengers" long-term but am giving it a chance at this point.
MS. MARVEL #40
The Dark Reign continues! What is the secret A.I.M. project that Karla Sofen has stumbled into...and what does it have to do with Carol Danvers? Special guest stars Spider-Man, Wolverine, Luke Cage...and Deadpool?!
Yes, I know what I said. Yes, I'm still getting this. Come on, it's got Deadpool!
NEW AVENGERS: THE REUNION #4 (of 4)
The red-hot reunion reaches its explosive conclusion with part four, The Avenger Who Came in From the Cold. Secrets are revealed, literal bombs are dropped, and an emotional choice forever alters the course of both Ronin and Mockingbird's lives. Don’t miss the book Comic Book Resources says has "everything one might want in an intelligently written adventure comic. There are secrets and lies, trusts and betrayals, and more. If you want action, there's plenty of action."
AVENGERS: THE INITIATIVE #25
"THE INITIATIVE: DISASSEMBLED" reaches its shocking conclusion! The full effects of Dark Reign take hold as Norman Osborn reshapes the Initiative into a place to train the Dark Avengers of tomorrow! And wait until you see who's running things now...(Hint: they're on the cover!) But what will happen to the Gauntlet, Tigra, Trauma and the other heroes who've made the Initiative what it is? Oh, Norman has plans for them as well... DON'T MISS THE ISSUE THAT CHANGES THE INITIATIVE FOREVER!
Okay, I don't absolutely have to get everything with the word "avengers" in the title. It just seems that way.
DEADPOOL #11
“BULLSEYE,” Part 2
Okay, that was...unexpected. Bullseye has learned some new tricks since the last time they met! But now it’s Deadpool’s turn to go on the offensive...and there’s nobody more offensive than Deadpool!
Because it's Deadpool.
AVENGERS/INVADERS #12 (of 12)
The year long event concludes with a battle royale against a Cosmic Cube powered Red Skull that shakes history to its core. In an altered past and an unrecognizable present, three super-powered teams made up of Earth Mightiest Heroes and the Greatest Heroes of World War Two, find themselves at a crossroads that none of them...or us...may survive.
Last issue of this series. Hope everything pulls together and makes sense. :)
CAPTAIN AMERICA #600
Where were you when Captain America died? It's the anniversary of the day Steve Rogers was killed, a day of reflection and mourning in the Marvel U...a time to look back on the things Steve did and what he stood for... or is this issue actually the beginning of the most wicked plot twist since issue 25? Yeah, actually it's both. Plus, contributions from Cap creators past and present, including a very special essay by Joe Simon, a classic story from Cap’s Golden Age, a full gallery of 600 Cap covers, and more anniversary shenanigans than you can shake a shield at!
So will the next issue be 601 or back to 51?
CAPTAIN BRITAIN AND MI13 #14
“VAMPIRE STATE”
The pieces are all in motion. Dracula, Lilith and Captain Fate are heading for Earth with their invasion force, as the Vampire Lord’s deal with Dr. Doom and master plan all come together. MI13 has been taken apart and the world is ripe for THE taking. Part 5 (of 6)
I am astonished that Dracula is in a comic book and it isn't gimmicky.
CAPTAIN BRITAIN AND MI13 ANNUAL #1
Meggan is Captain Britain's wife, an X-Man in Hell. And she's going to fight her way home. Over years, bargains, battles, with only her love to guide her. Can she get back to Earth in time to help her husband turn back Dracula and his evil invasion? And is that a metal gauntlet offering a hand? Don’t miss this key part of “Vampire State”! Plus: MI13 delves into the secrets behind British Magic.
Yeah, okay, this too.
MARVEL ADVENTURES THE AVENGERS #37
DOLL WINNER'S SQUAD: He's back, and now the Puppet Master's reach extends into the past, where he's controlling the All Winner's Squad into reshaping the "future world" of today into his own very personal utopia! But when Miss America, Golden Girl and the Blonde Phantom arrive from the 1940's to team up with today's Captain America and the rest of Avengers, it's a battle royale to decide the past, present and future fate of the world!
For the ten-year-old.

So I say to the fourteen-year-old, "Hey, they're supposed to be getting a new writer and artist for Runaways. Her reply? "Yay about the artist." Yeah, this is one of hers as well.
Oh, and also, I'm not getting it because I bought the floppies, but they're putting out an Irredeemable Ant-Man trade. That was an awesome series, if you didn't get it you should check this out!
